We’re so thankful to have a day to honor the many men and women who serve our country and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice so we can live in freedom!
Did you have an enjoyable holiday weekend?
We tried to fit in as much fun as we could!
Here are some of the highlights!
What we’ve been up to this week
We finally saw Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3!
The boys in our family remember what happened in the last two movies, but I needed a little refresher!
So, we watched the first two movies at home so I wouldn’t be lost, lol!
We all liked the movie and thoroughly enjoyed the soundtrack!
Here’s Rich and Griffin sitting outside the Cookes of Dublin Restaurant.
It was such a gorgeous day to eat outside!
Griffin is sporting his Rocket baseball cap! Every time he wears it, people always compliment him on it!!
Rich and I had the traditional Irish fish and chips, and Griffin had the chicken tenders! So yummy!
Next, we headed to our favorite beach on Siesta Key!
Look at the soft white sand! It feels so good on your feet!
The colors of the ocean are gorgeous on the Gulf side of Florida!
We feel so fortunate to live someplace where we can go to the beach for a day!
The drive takes two hours and fifteen minutes, but it’s worth it!
What we’ve been up to on the blog
